Skyraider

…and if it flaps fast enough, eventually it gets airborne! 😀

Bit blurred, scanned from photo, I didn’t have a digital camera back then.

Three lining up at Duxford

Taken at Long Beach around 1982-there were at least 6 or 7 others also there-presumably awaiting sale?

Here is a Composite airframe at the RTAF museum in Bangkok, made of bits and pieces that were left behind by the USAF in Thailand after the vietnam war.

In formation with Plane Sailings previous PBY-5A over Duxford circa 1995… pic taken from the port blister 🙂
